Let's Chat!
Well that really does sound serious! I don't mind bugs. Haha I hate it when people kill them, but I'm not like a bug lover though : )
Hmmm do u read Vampier-related stories? Or u r just in a mood for dystopian?
Oh, sometimes I wish I had nothing to read!! lol I have too many books sitting in my "queue" and I'm supposed to be writing a novel (sequel) right now! What are you in the mood for?? I can offer a gazillion suggestions!
Hahahaha. When u said murder I got a few Hannibal-related images!! Well idk, but one of my favorite series' is like vampires in a dystopian world...it's pretty cool and I really liked it. The characters r awesome.
It's The Captive Series by Erica Stevens. With Capture being book 1. Check it out and decided for yourself. It might not be ur thing or it might be what ur looking for : )
Here's a few of my faves... (minor romance in all of them) 
and
and sequel
Both series deal with vampires/zombies. Maybe you've already read them?
I recently finished
and it was really good. Dark and creepy. Of course it's the sequel to Enclave which is pretty good for the most part.
Well I just read Hope's daughter like two days ago. It's a dystopian w/ no vampires, but it's slow paced so idk if u like those or not...Then there's Graceling a top favorite of mine. It's kinda of historical fantasy and its anything but slow and boring, it's thrilling and witty so maybe give it a check too : )
Okay, no vamps? How about the Maze Runner series? Also, the Lorien Legacies series (I am Number Four). Those are pretty fast paced. Oh, oh! This one is good too,

LOL, yeah...
I just checked out The Immortal Rules and at first I was like "oh this is good why isn't it in my "to-read" list?" Then I got to where it said she turns into a vampire and I changed my mind. But Tracy does she turn back into a human or no??
Have you read Pure by Julianna Baggott? I read it a few weeks ago and I thought it was good. No vamps or zombies.
@Amelia u HAVE to read TID! It's way better than TMI! And u wouldn't miss Bane! Haha he's in both : )
Amelia wrote: "I'm picky, I know! Thanks though. I'll check all of them out. I was thinking of reading graceling, but the title sounded lame. I guess I'll give it a try anyhow. XDMaybe I'll also read the infern..."
I really liked TMI. I LOVED TID. And maybe you've already heard this, but several of the characters in both series are quite similar. And most people I've talked to liked TID better than TMI. So it's worth a read!!

You know, I was a little creeped out by that fact before I read it. But my friend said it was awesome, and she's not really into too much creepiness, so I read it. Yes, she turns, but it's so interesting to read her story from her perspective! It's kind of like taking "Twilight" and turning it inside out and making it 10 times better. (Well, the MC is way tougher than Bella!! Which I realize isn't that hard, lol) But when I say Twilight, I DON'T mean the romance stuff, sure there's some romance in this, but not much, but it's just so intense reading about this girl's experience being a new vampire, I couldn't put it down!! And I won't spoil anything about her staying or not staying a vampire!
Yeah, in "I am Number Four", there's the love interest, but in the other books in the series, there isn't much romance, just lots of suspense since there's all these young people (the different "numbers") running from the Mogodorians (sp). Did you see the movie?
@Tarcy, well okay then. U made it sound mind blowing! I never thought of how she'll tell things after turning but now that u mention it? It does sound interesting! Haha anyone could be better then Bella, ur right.
Thx!
I didn't like Stalker at first, cuz yeah, total creep, but somehow he turned out to be this nice yet tormented guy. I mean, who DOESN'T have issues right?? Geez, I may have to read TMI series again, I've forgotten a lot of it! I remember some crazy stuff happened though.

No prob, anytime!
Heather wrote: "Have you read Pure by Julianna Baggott? I read it a few weeks ago and I thought it was good. No vamps or zombies."Oh yeah, Pure's good. Very different! I have yet to read Fuse. (Sitting on my shelf, all 5000 pages of it, lol) I'm reading the Uglies series right now...
She made a book list!! Woot woot xD! I felt soooo bad for Sebastian until! He turned out like little old papa!! I thought he'd want revenge and try to make things work w/ his mother and Clary but man his switch is flipped!
I like Alec too! He's funny! And tries his best to keep the young ones outta trouble, but what he did at the end?? Made me angry but also broke my heart :"(
Hahaha I kinda felt for Alec though. I mean its kinda devastating when think about it from his point of view, but still he had no right either way.I think I might be one of the few people (if any at all) who like Camille. I really like her character and she's also in TID and she did some good things back then and kinda grew on me (plus she's funny) and I HOPE she's not dead!! But I gotta feeling she is.
Hahahahahahaha I just hope u didn't cut yourself! It's 2:38am here and looks like ill be up for a while too.
Good morning : )!
I'm hungry too! Even though I ate like 5 hours ago! I always find the most bazaar and unworthy news on yahoo. But there's always something important, interesting, or even sweet/happy on their news panel!
Hahahahaha ill check them out! ThxIm mostly on Tumblr b/c I can control what pops up and what I want to see : )
So not true!!!!! U only get what u want on tumblr!! U choose what comes across ur dashboard. U have more control than u do in any other site! *okay clam down!* sorry haha I just don't get it when ppl say that. Tumblr is what u make it to be : ) (that's sounds deeper than it should be) xP
I have stumbleupon the app but never really use. Only when I want poems. And there's also Pinterest. It's fun but I don't go on there a lot either, just if I want to look at tattoos,rings, and hair dos.Tumblr is fun b/c that's where all the fandoms usually are x D
I'm gonna try to sleep, so good night from my side : )
I'm buzzfeed all the way- best website EVER (other than goodreads of course!)
Yay a buzzer! HahahaI like BF too! Never met/talked to someone who even knows what it is : )
Same!! But it's like my favorite website!! I can't get enough of those lists :D I keep checking the new Book section they made :D
I know me too! Haha Btw did u check out the pictures of some famous authors when they were young??
Look at Stephanie Meyer and Tolkien!
I know right!! And Mark Twain and Neil Gaiman!
Ya! Haha I took a snapshot of Mark Twain, he just looks so funny!
I love the Geeky section and the Books section best :D
I spent like an hour on the geeky section yesterday! Haha it's one of my faves too xD
Nice!!! If ever you find an AWESOME list, you have to post a link :)
Sure will ! Same to u!! Hey Melanie : )
I don't know lol What do you want to talk about?
who's gonna go see the city of bones movie on Wednesday and hi guys
I so wanna go and see it, but gotta a lil problem with movie theaters.....so that sucks! Gotta wait till its on redbox.
I walk every morning for an hour because I hate running. And I get some reading in too!
I don't plan on seeing it unless it's at the drive in with another movie that I want to see. I don't work out very often but I am active. I used to be real good at it but then life went crazy. I'm hoping in the next week or so I can start squeezing in time to go to the gym. My legs are actually sore today from doing stuff out in the yard yesterday.
Haha Amelia, wonderful advance!xPAfter a while your body becomes able to sustain the pain so don't stop it's just the beginning xD
Hahahahaha boxing sounds fun! But how on earth is running not satisfying?? Lol Hmm..sure I don't mind. I mean I still didn't read the books but saw the 1st movie and I liked it and read about Rick and I think he's a thoughtful cool guy. So if you don't like him I think that's fine and you can "rant" about that, I mean I just talked about what I think of him. So I think it's cool xD
Ps Why don't like his books/ or him?
